It supports the Wikivoyage wiki in various ways including promotion, fund raising, and technical development. Association’s purpose Our main purpose was and will never be changed: with the Wikivoyage wiki we are compiling, collecting and spreading free information to promoting education and knowledge of all countries and regions in the world as well as understanding among nations. But our scope changed: In the past we mainly run the servers to host both the Wikivoyage project and related tools. Our current tasks are: • Recruiting new readers and authors: Raising awareness of the Wikivoyage project to attract more readers and active community members. This can be done for instance by press relations, advertisement and the organization of social events like meetings. • Community support: Supporting volunteer editors to let them contribute more easily and effectively. • Spreading content: Supporting different ways of the making content available both in online and offline media. • Communication: Transfer of information and discussions between the travel community, the Wikimedia communities, the association, the Wikimedia Foundation and its local chapters. • Software development: Supporting the development and hosting of MediaWiki features to accommodate the specific needs of a travel community. How to support the association You can support us in different ways: by an association membership or as a supporter. Of course, membership is not required for participation in Wikivoyage but we warmly invite you to join.

  • Knowledge Management by Wikis
    Knowledge management by wikis Sander Spek [email protected] Institute for Knowledge and Agent Technology Universiteit Maastricht Abstract Wikis provide a new way of collaboration and knowledge sharing. Wikis are software that allows users to work collectively on a web-based knowledge base. Wikis are characterised by a sense of anarchism, collaboration, connectivity, organic development and self-healing, and they rely on trust. We list several concerns about applying wikis in professional organisation. After these concerns are met, wikis can provide a progessive, new knowledge sharing and collabora- tion tool. 1 Grassroots knowledge sharing During the last decades, the sharing of information and knowledge has gone through an unheard rapidisation. Both the amount of information shared, as well as the speed in which this happens, has taken a huge flight. In many fields of progress, professional organisations were more ad- vanced then ‘amateur knowledge sharers’. Remarkably, in some fields this has changed over the years. On the Internet, many succesful grassroots initiatives have popped up, that still didn’t make it to the somewhat static and controlled environment of professional business organisa- tions. Think of free-software projects, but also of free-information projects, as wikis, weblogs, and open news sites like Indymedia. (Möller, 2005) In this paper, we will examine on of the most popular and upcoming knowledge sharing enablers on the Internet: wikis. Consequently, we will discuss why wikis are not (yet) adequate for a professional environment, and what could be changed to have companies adapt the power of wiki-based knowledge sharing too. 2 Wikis Möller (2005, page vii, translated) defines wikis as “open websites that can be edited by every visitor.”1 We will extend this definition in two ways: (1) we explicitly state that modifying can also include deleting information, and (2) we mention the fact that a wiki is in fact a knowledge base.

  • Openstreetmap and Wikimedia: a Quick Overview
    OpenStreetMap and Wikimedia: A quick overview State of the Map 2018 Eugene Alvin Villar [[User:seav]] OpenStreetMap is like Wikipedia for maps OpenStreetMap is like Wikidata for geographical data OpenStreetMap has nodes, ways, relations, tags, keys, values, etc. Wikidata has items, statements, properties, values, qualifiers, etc. Data modeling discussions on the Wikidata:Project chat page are actually quite similar to discussions on OSM’s tagging mailing list. Wikimedia in OSM The OSM Wiki is powered by MediaWiki, the wiki engine developed by Wikimedia, and this also provides access to Wikimedia Commons images. Tag definitions on the OSM Wiki link to Wikipedia and Wikidata to help clarify features. OSM objects can link to corresponding Wikipedia articles and Wikidata items using the wikipedia=* and wikidata=* tags respectively. The OpenStreetMap Foundation has derived its Local Chapters agreement and Trademark Policy from corresponding documents from the Wikimedia Foundation. OSM in Wikimedia OSM has been used to create maps to illustrate Wikipedia articles and populate Wikimedia Commons. OSM has been used to create maps to illustrate Wikipedia articles and populate Wikimedia Commons. OSM powers the Wikimedia Foundation’s Kartotherian map tile service, which is used by the Kartographer MediaWiki extension and almost all other interactive maps on Wikimedia projects. The Wikimedia Foundation recently released internationalized map tiles for Kartotherian, leveraging OSM’s name:*=* tags. WikiMiniAtlas, an older MediaWiki plugin still in use in many Wikipedias, is also powered by OSM data, including 3D building data. Wikidata items on places can link to OSM relations using the OSM relation ID (P402) property. Wikidata items about features can link to equivalent OSM features using the OSM tag or key (P1282) property.

  • Public Wikis: Sharing Knowledge Over the Internet
    Technical Communication Wiki : Chapter 2 This page last changed on Apr 15, 2009 by kjp15. Public Wikis: Sharing Knowledge over the Internet What is a public wiki? A public wiki refers to a wiki that everyone can edit, that is, it is open to the general public on the Internet with or without a free login. Anyone is welcome to add information to the wiki, but contributors are asked to stay within the subject area, policies, and standards of the particular wiki. Content that does not relate to the subject or is not of good quality can and will be deleted by other users. Also, if a contributor makes a mistake or a typo, other users will eventually correct the error. Open collaboration by anyone means that multiple articles can be written very fast simultaneously. And, while there may be some vandalism or edit wars, quality of the articles will generally improve over time after many editors have contributed. The biggest public wiki in the world, with over 75,000 contributors, is Wikipedia, "the free encyclopedia that anyone can edit" [1]. Wikipedia has over 2.8 million articles in the English version, which includes over 16 million wiki pages, and is one of the top ten most popular websites in the United States [2]. There are versions of Wikipedia in ten different languages, and articles in more than 260 languages. Wikipedia is operated by the non-profit Wikimedia Foundation [3] which pays a small group of employees and depends mainly on donations. There are also over 1,500 volunteer administrators with special powers to keep an eye on editors and make sure they conform to Wikipedia's guidelines and policies.
